CARNEY AND MITCHELL.
The Ensiishman Proves His Superiority
over the Philadelphian bv knocking
Him out in Eleven Rounds.

New YORK, June Is.
The $1,000 championship OF the world light
weight fight between Jem Carney, the Eng
lish champion, and Jimmy Mitchell of Phila-
delphis, came off Friday night thirty miles
up the sound. Carney won by knocking
Mitchell out in the eleventh round. Ii was
hard fought battle and one of the cleverest
seen IN many years. Chambers and Patsy
Shepherd tossed for corners and Shepherd
won, choosing for Carney the northeast cor
ner Mitchell occupied the southwest cor
ner. Frank Stevenson was referee Cut
kid gloves were used. Time was called at
II Is A. NJ. The fght was characterized bv
heavy slugginy on both sides up to the sixth
round. In the seventh round Carney led
with his left sending it hard on Mitchells
stomach. Then they clinched and Carney,
holding Mitchell, pounded him terribly on
the face and ears. Then they clnched again
and then both fell in Mitchell's corner. Car
ney hammered Mitchell all over the ring,
and Mitchell got one in the mouth that made
him bleed, and first blood was claimed and
allowed Carney in the eighth, ninth and
tenth rounds. 1t was Carney's fight from
this out. Mitchelrs left eve and also his lips
were pulled up and he was very weak. In
the eleventh and last round Carney opened
by planting heavy hand on Mitchell's Jaw
that staggered him. Then Carney jumped at
him letting go his right and left on MS body
knocking Mitchell down. He raised himself
again when Carney went at him and sent him
down with a shove. This he repeated, ana
Mitchell, being unable to come TO time, the
fight was given to Carney. The blow that
did for Mitchell was a left handed smash on
the right cheek bone. The time of fighting
was Al minutes and 40 seconds. 1t was the
first time he had ever been knocked out. He
says the sensation is something beyond de
scrlption. Carney, with the exception that
his left ear was somewhat bruised, was not
otherwise injured apparently His face
showed no marks. The stakes were $1,000
side and there was an extra $1,000 in gate
money.

retired about 10 O'Clock and was aroused by
a lady who said the boat was on fire. She
first went aft but came back and reached the
bow where she was let down by ropes into
the water. She saw gentleman clasp his

saw no more of his companion until he dis
covered his dead body on the beach.
Survivors speak in the highest terms of the
coolness and bravery, and gallant conduct of
Capt. Casey and his crew.

DARING Train ROBBERY
On the southern Pacific Railway in
TeAas-AbOut sI0, 900 Worth of i,ooty
Secured by the Thieves.

HoUsToN, Texas, June Is.
A most daring train robbery was perpe-
trated at 30 clock this morning a short
distance from Schulenburg on the Southern
Pacific railroad. As the train drew out of
the station, two men with drawn revolvers
mounted the engine, covered the engineer
with their weapons, and compelled him to pull
the train out to the open prarie,a few hundred
yards to the east, where fire was burning,
around which stood eight or ten men armed
with Winchester rifles. The two men on the
engine stood guard over the man at the
throttle, while the others went through the
mail express and passenger cars. Nearly all
the passengers were asleep, and did not know
what was going on until they were aroused
by the robbers. The first man tackled bv
the thieves was W. New burger of New York,
whom they struck on the head with revol-
yer. They secured from him SIS in cash
and several diamonds and gold watch. all
valued at about $1,000. All the passengers
lost what valuables they had. 1t is dific ult
10 form an estimate of the amount of money
and jewelry secured. Well, Fargo & CO.
express car was gone through, but the amount
of money taken from it cannot be ascertained.
No mail route agent was on the tram, but the
through mail pouches IN the express car were
all burst open and their contents appropriated.
The total amount secured by the robbers is
put down at $1,000 or $500 There is no
doubt that considerable booty was secured
and the gang made off with it SUCCESSFULLY
The whole country is aroused and in arms
Several parties have gone in search of the
gang.

A large audience gathered in Chickerng

speak under the auspices Of the National

Talmage presided and introduced the speaker
at his suggestion. The people arose in their
seats and waved handkerchiefs at the visitor
'in christian salvation" The canon spoke
energeticaliy and rapidly for an hour and
awoke great enthusiasm. Among things he
said were: The noblest of enthusiasms is
that of love of the Lord, and the basest, pas
sion for strong drink. The only thing that
christianity wants just now is christians.
There are too mary people with too much re-
ligiou to enjoy the world and too many with
too much worldliness to ENJOY religion. In
England we put our big brewers in the House
OF Commons instead of putting them in jail,
as they do in Maine. Il Maine they lock
up liquor before it gets into man, while in
New York you only lock it up after. There
must be no compromise, no high license, but
absolute and universal prohibition. Talk
about destroying an industry, Why in Scot
land there is an est ,blishment that turns over
in year 100, 600 pounds and employs l50
men. The same capital invested in iron
manufacturing in Sheffield would give work
to 1900 and in cotton would employ ll00 per-
sons. Any persons VINO say prohibition
would hurt industry lies under the greatest
mistake of his life and don't know ANYTHING.
| beseech you not to let this question become
one of politics. Don't let it at the mercy of
political intriguers. believe some of you
retain something of an affection for the old
mother country and | want you to know how
badly off we are. You could not stand it if
you were as badly off Your climate is more

ems before we do in England.

NORTH ADAMS, VT. June IS.
Daniel O'Connell of Stamford, VT, while
looking for cattle yesterday, accompanied BY
his dog, heard noise in the bushes near by,
and turning, saw large bear coming toward
him. O'Connell was unarmed, and running
for tree grasped a lower limb, when the
bear caught him by the foot lascerating the
cali of the leg badly. O'Connell broke away
and got into the tree, the bear this time fol-
lowing him. Both went out on a small limb,
which broke, letting them fall TO the ground,
where another struggle took place. The dog
then tackled the bear, which was thus at
tracted from O'Connell, who vas enabled to
escape. O'Connelps wounds are very seri-
Gus. but not necessarily fatal. The dog has
not yet reached home and il supposed to have
been killed in the unequal fight.
